EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken in 1908 by the Stereo Travel Co, transports us to Mandalay, Burma. The image showcases a group of Burmese women elegantly seated outside their home, engaged in the act of smoking cheroots. Their traditional costumes add an air of cultural richness to the scene. The women exude a sense of relaxation as they enjoy each other's company amidst the tranquil surroundings. The building behind them stands tall and sturdy, providing a glimpse into Burmese architecture from that era. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only a moment of leisure but also gain insight into socializing customs prevalent during early 20th century Burma. Tobacco was clearly an integral part of their culture as evidenced by the cigars held delicately between their fingers. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and intensity to this group portrait, allowing us to focus on every intricate detail captured by the Stereoscopic card technology employed at that time. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Print Collector collection, our imagination takes flight with thoughts about these fascinating Burmese women and their lives within Mandalay Division. This photograph serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and historical documentation - reminding us how photography can bridge gaps between different eras and cultures.
